Removing and installing components during servicing
Removing and installing components during servicing
Only qualified technicians should repair your notebook. Unauthorised opening or incorrect repair may greatly endanger the user (electric shock, fire risk) and will invalidate your warranty.
After consulting the Hotline/Service Desk, you may remove and install the components described in this chapter yourself.
If you remove and install components without consulting the Hotline/Service Desk, then the warranty of your notebook will be voided.
Notes on installing and removing boards and components
•Switch the notebook off and pull the power plug out of the mains socket.
•Always remove the battery.
•Take care when you use the locking mechanisms on the battery and any other component.
•Never use sharp objects such as screwdrivers, scissors or knives as leverage to remove covers.
Boards with electrostatic sensitive devices (ESD) are marked with the label shown.
When handling boards fitted with ESDs, you must always observe the following points:
•You must always discharge static build up (e.g. by touching a grounded object) before working.
•The equipment and tools you use must be free of static charges.
•Remove the power plug from the mains supply before inserting or removing boards containing ESDs.
•Always hold boards with ESDs by their edges.
•Never touch pins or conductors on boards fitted with ESDs.
